As HYROX continues to grow globally, Hong Kong has quickly become one of Asia’s most exciting fitness hubs for the sport with nearly 20,000 competitors taking part in this year’s event.
The article highlighted how HYROX’s unique mix of endurance, strength and functional fitness is attracting everyone from first time racers to experienced athletes, while also creating a strong community driven training culture across the city.
As gym owner, Santina Philips shared in the feature, HYROX has become deeply embedded in Hong Kong’s fitness scene, with more gyms and athletes embracing race focused training than ever before. You can read the full SCMP feature here.
